http://www.aruba.com/forum/tags/permanent%20residency.html Permanent Residency
http://www.arubachamber.com/relocation.htm Relocation to Aruba "Temporary or Permanent Work Permit Any foreigner who wants to exercise a profession/occupation must have a work permit to do so. The work permit will normally be granted only if there are no qualified persons locally available. In general, requests for work permits will only be taken into consideration if submitted through a local employer, who has to accept full responsibility for any possible expenses to be incurred by the government relative to its employees. For a trainee position or internship a special work permit is required. With the exception of tourists, all other foreigners should have a permit document to prove their legal presence on the island. This means that one (unless a tourist) should not travel to or be on the island pending a request for a residence and/or work permit." http://www.aruba.com/forum/tags/jobs.html Jobs in Aruba http://www.aruba.com/forum/tags/moving+to+aruba.html Moving to Aruba http://www.aruba.com/forum/f34/openning-bank-account-aruba-33983/ Opening a bank account in Aruba http://www.aruba.com/forum/tags/shipping%20car.html Shipping A Car to Aruba http://www.arubachamber.com/establishing.htm Establishing a Business in Aruba See details regarding "authorized capital" or "so-called minimum issued capital." http://www.arubachamber.com/tips.htm Helpful Tips for Entrepreneurs "Permits to Establish a Business: As an Aruban you do not need a permit to establish a business in Aruba, when it concerns a sole proprietorship. You still need to register your business in the Commercial Register at the Chamber. If you are not an Aruban born Dutch national, you always need a permit to establish a business. Whether you will receive a permit depends on what sort of business you intend to start. The main criteria are if the business provides enlargement of the economic basis and if it is capital intensive."

If you stay here longer than 6 months - be sure to include "income" and AZV (socialized medical) taxes....
A LOT of people didn't know about that one !!! Have the information (I think) but that topic isn't very clear at all! Also DIMAS (residency) requirements seem to change every year -

Hi, ArubaLisa,
It's Dr. Steve again. I have read a lot about whether or not one can move to Aruba and open up a business in Aruba. Whom do I talk to to get exact answers. I am a chiropractor of 15 years experience and would like to move with my family to Aruba. I would like to be able to help not only locals but visitors to the island with neck and back trouble. We are serious but need further direction on how to proceed. anyone out there that can help, it would be appreciated. Thanks, Dr. Steve sllevine@cox.net |
